Myanmar deported actress and former Bond girl Michelle Yeoh after she attempted to enter the country Wednesday. The exact reasons for her attempted entry are unclear: Yeoh was in Burma previously in December to meet with Nobel laureate Aung San Suu Kyi, whom Yeoh is playing in a new film by French director Luc Besson, but the film has already finished shooting in neighboring Thailand. Yeoh was turned around immediately at the Yangon airport and placed on the first flight out of the country.
